Guy in hi-vis looks as though he's just jumped the red coming off City Rd, and judging by the way his bike's pointing the guy in black has either come up Upper York St the wrong way or has just come off the pavement - he's heading right to left as we look at it.

Six of one and half a dozen of the other?

There's a prize if you can correctly locate the ball they have edited out.

what happens if they take a picture of the police, or a drain or something, does that mean google can be arrested under anti terrorism laws?

There's definately two bikes there.

I think Hi-viz has jumped the lights, coming from the stationary traffic. Man in Black looks like he may have come off that side road without looking though. I can't work out if its one way...
 
You can see the two bikes slightly better in this shot and the bloke wearing black looks OK. I'm guessing because traffic is stopped the bloke in hi vis jumped the red or gambled on amber and the bloke in black was coming the wrong way up a oneway (judging on the original shot). Then again I wasn't there so I can't judge.

Its a one way street just beyond and you don't tend to get people going the wrong way up it ... as you can't then turn right to go up the Gl road at that point. Thinking about the direction the guy in black is going in after the accident maybe he came off the pavement? Yellow guy has to have jumped the lights - I usually see plenty doing from that direction when I'm waiting at the lights coming down to that junction.

Hard to tell what happened really.Just assumptions there.

Yes, but it's interesting speculating.
